Emily Maynard- Bachelorette 7/11/11 interview with Chris Harrison
Here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPgZU I recommend watching from 2:30 mark to 7:30 (or longer if you are so inclined).
I would love to hear your thoughts on Emily...If she is being sincere and truthful. There has been so much speculation on what happened between she and Brad. Do you think she was the one who made the decision or do you think it was Brad who ended the engagement. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and sharing your gift with your readers. I love your site!
Warmest regards,
Marla Meyer

Marla -- From what I gathered watching this--Emily and Brad were really close, however, she needed more from Brad, she even said so and he was unwilling to give it. She was willing to move across the country with Rickey, but she basically confessed that he wasn't willing to give her what she needed (I suspect a wedding date or more seriousness to the commitment) so from that I suspect she broke it off because Brad couldn't "commit" to more than the ring, if you will. I say I think they are close because she didn't want to put that label on Brad (because she knows how mortified he is about being called commitment phobic) so she is protecting him--I suspect secretly hoping he'll realize she is the love of his life. It likely won't happen. She is truly heartbroken over it and wants Brad to want her, but he isn't expressing it how she needs it.
